Thanks again for the quick reply Tom. Let me clear up a couple of possible misperceptions you or others may have from my last post. Firstly, the fact that Ted Brewer doesn't miss the use of diagonals in fairing a hull on a computer. Not that some antiquated computer program couldn't produce them for him. Secondly, heeled waterlines, i.e; the shape waterlines take at differing angles of heel. The waterline plane being the constant. On another post you mentioned Laurent Giles designs showing good diagonals yet all his are struck at 45 degree's are they not? Preferably, Tom, what I am looking for is not an argument, but some type of published support for what your talking about. Thanks.
